Movie Review - Horizon: An American Saga - Chapter 1
Horizon: An American Saga-Chapter 1 was a solid start to what will become a four part film series. Kevin Costner sure does love his western movies. I was reading an article about the movie and found out that he invested $38 million dollars of his own money. When the film premiered at the Cannes Film Festival he received a 10 minute standing ovation which moved him to tears. That's pretty cool.
Trying to review and give this movie a grade is complicated. I knew going in that I needed to keep an open mind, I know there will need to be introductions and the base of the story outlined, also we'll be introduced to a ton of characters. They did a great job there, we were thrown a ton of stuff but they kept the pace up enough to intrigue you into coming back again and again and again.
I'm excited for the next three. I'm wondering where it will lead and how it will wrap up. Stay tuned because the second installment is set for an August 16th 2024 premiere.
